6. Signracer LED timing settings Before installing a new software or driver, please backup the current offset values, start points and print head parameter settings. Make also pictures (or printscreen) from all alignment settings in SET. Install an old backup parameter will give an error in the latest version due to new driver parameter possibilities in v2288.
Page 73
The ink is immediatly cured by the lamps “direct curing”. We can set both the timing for activating the Led, and closing the LED at the end of each pass. On the way back, we set the timing for “Go left” adjust right lamp to be opened and closed The lower part of this Fine adjustment window, is for setting the “delayed curing”...
